#ALSO THE BOYS ARE SLAYING THE DAUGHTERS OUTFITS.............................

[kit-foley]

Nancy Drew Games are 50% off on Steam right now so here are some shitty descriptions of the games for newbies or partners (not in order, also spoilers)

Secrets can kill: dickface high schooler was pushed down a flight of stairs, find out who did it

The Silent Spy: Nancy has mommy issues and cosplays as a spy in Scotland

Sea of Darkness: all of the characters have trauma around a ship. featuring the only canonically queer character.

Deadly Device: tech bro gets electrocuted, who did it oh noooo. Feat: women in stem

Midnight in Salem: Glitch-wise, this is the fandom-equivalent of the first release of FNAF Security Breach but doesn’t nearly slay as hard and they didn’t patch any of the bugs. Haven’t played it but the fandom is 50/50 on it, maybe 80/20 against

Shattered Medallion: off brand amazing race goes wrong, feat. A recurring character who you’re supposed to know

Alibi in Ashes: Nancy didn’t commit arson (this time) so who the fuck did? See also, “I can commit major theft and prod you about your dead mom, but I draw the line at arson.”

The Captive Curse: monster and intergenerational trauma, beautifully told story. Plus lederhosen.

Shadow at the Waters Edge: ghosts and intergenerational trauma, beautifully told story. Plus kawaii

Ghost of Thornton hall; ghosts and intergenerational trauma, beautifully told story. Plus southern people.

The Final Scene: nancys friend who we’ve never met gets kidnapped. Plus magic tricks/Houdini. Plus old man.

The Haunted Carousel: Dead mom plus the most annoying daughter you’ll ever encounter and her emotional support robot. Also you’re supposed to fix a theme park

Danger by Design: Parisian fashion designer with anger issues and also might deny that nazis happened during wwii

Curse of blackmoor manor: British girl says oh no my stepmom is turning into a werewolf

Warnings at Waverly Academy; the trailer for this one said something like “I hang out with teenage girls in this one, it could be my scariest case yet”, basically be prepared to do other students homework. Also immaculate dark academia/fall vibes tho

Phantom of Venice: white boy of the month shows you his seven hour tesserae slideshow and you single-handedly bring down a crime ring while wearing stupid outfits

Trail of the Twister: someone is sabotaging a storm chasing team but Nancy cares more about asking the local general store owner about his dead wife

Secret of the Old Clock: It’s magically 1930 again, this game feels so far off brand from pretty much all of the other ones imo but the music goes HARD and there’s def some homoerotic tensions between a dead old man and his live-in psychic

Legend of the Crystal Skull: make a curio shop owner sneeze, collect glass eyeballs, watch a Gerard Way look-alike cry, and maybe get buried alive

Haunting of Castle Malloy: banshees and letterpress and a pub that conveniently only serves juice. Terrible Irish accents. Try to find a missing groom for a wedding but also enjoy a walking sim that walked so Stardew Valley could run

Creature of Kapu Cave: get stuck in a tourist trap resort by a guy who calls himself Big Island Mike, then get stuck in a forest with an entomologist who makes you do her work for her, then get stuck in a research facility with an angry white guy who makes you do his work and then falls asleep. Music slaps but no idea what the plot of the game is supposed to be. Also do a “freaky friday” style switch with the Hardy Boys every time you call them on your cell phone.

Last train to Blue Moon canyon: picture Paris Hilton inviting you on a train and then she goes missing. Also on the train with you: the worst police detective, Zak Bagans impersonator, and Colleen Hoover-vibes.

White Wolf of Icicle Creek: “I fired. And I missed. I missed again. I got sad. I had a popsicle.”

Journey to the West Piolet Episode (1982) 西游记试集：除妖乌鸡国

Director: Yang Jie / Xun Hao / Ren Fengpo / Dong Xingji Screenwriter: Zou Yiqing / Dai Yinglu Starring: Liu Xiaolingtong / Ma Dehua / Wang Yue / Yan Huaili / Lei Ming / Zheng Chuqi / Wang Haining / Dong Honglin / Zhao Guangbin / Li Runsheng / Yang Yunfei / Dong Xingji Genre: Drama / Fantasy / Costume Country/Region of Production: Mainland China Language: Mandarin Chinese Date: 1982-10-01 (Mainland China) Duration: 56 minutes Also known as: Journey to the West (pilot): The Demon-Slaying Black-Chicken Country / The Demon-Slaying Black-Chicken Country / The Journey to the West Trial Episode / The Journey to the West Pilot Episode / The "Journey to the West" TV Series: The Demon-Slaying Black-Chicken Country / 除妖乌鸡国 / 西游记试集 / 西游记试播集 / “西游记”电视系列片：除妖乌鸡国 Type: Retelling

Summary:

The story behind the pilot episode of Journey to the West "The Kingdom of the Black Chicken" If you were to ask which episode of "Journey to the West" was aired first, you would definitely say without hesitation that it was when the Monkey King first came out. In fact, the real first episode was "The Kingdom of the Black Chicken". This was an episode of trial filming in July 1982. The episode was broadcast on CCTV on October 1, 1982. It is said that after the broadcast, the response from the audience was still great, but the crew of Journey to the West thought it was very unsuccessful.

In the 1986 version of Journey to the West, Tang Monk wore a Five Buddha crown and a brocade cassock. However, during the trial filming in 1982, the crew in Yangzhou had not yet finished making the Five Buddha crown and cassock. Therefore, they could only prepare them for Tang Monk. He bought a set of casual clothes, which was an ordinary monk's hat and robe. At the beginning of the trial, Tang Monk walked into Baolin Temple wearing this outfit. The real and fake Tang Monk: played by Wang Yue, played by Chi Chongrui in the remake.

The deleted section of "Chenjiazhuang" in Episode 25 "Bo Sheng Bliss" At that time (1982-1988), due to lack of funds, the crew did not film five episodes of the story including "Dangerous Crossing of Tongtian River", but the episode of "Tongtian River" has many connections with the last episode:

Among them, the specific plot of "Life Saving Temple" is: the master and apprentice dried the scriptures and came to a temple, and found that the statues of their four masters and apprentices were enshrined inside. It turned out that this was Chenjiazhuang's gratitude to Master Tang Monk for fighting the carp spirit in Tongtian River. , the "Lifesaving Temple" built to save a pair of children of the Chen family enshrines incense. The four masters and apprentices were about to leave when they met Chen Qing and his wife who came to collect incense. Under the warm invitation, Master Tang and his disciples came to Chenjiazhuang to have an evening meal. The people in the village were very grateful to the four masters and disciples. In the evening, Master Tang and his disciples were in a hurry and did not want to disturb the people of Chenjiazhuang too much, so they left quietly.

The first eleven episodes were broadcast on February 3, 1984, "The Plan to Harvest Zhu Bajie" and "Three Strikes of Bone Demons", and the first eleven episodes were broadcast during the Spring Festival in 1986. The ending song "Dare to Ask Where is the Way" was sung by Zhang Baomo. In 1986, he completed the filming of "Lotus Cave", "Destroying Demons and Black Roosters" (remake), "Battle of the Red Boy", "Battle of Three Monsters", "Qu Jing Daughter's Kingdom", "Three-Tune Banana Fan", "Sweeping" There are nine episodes in "The Pagoda Discriminates Strange Injustices", "Wandering into Xiaoleiyin" and "Sun Houqiao Practices Medicine". In 1987, five episodes of "Falling into the Pansi Cave", "Four Explorations into the Bottomless Cave", "Jade Continent", "Tianzhu Collecting the Jade Rabbit" and "Bossing into Paradise" were completed. Starting from February 1, 1988, all the first 25 episodes were broadcast.

Drew the founders wives in some outfits!

Since that don’t have canon colors I kind of went by feeling (even though I guess Emily should have been darker in both hair and skin but I guess it’s fine like this too)

I think Eliza is in red mostly becouse I don’t know why I thought she had roses in her canon portrait? Idk why I remembered it like that but I wanted it to look like it had gold in it becouse she is the oldest I think among theme and I feel like her husband was kind of the founders leader sooo yes

For Esther I went princess full fairy tail princess whit flowers and such, also poor girl can you imagine your soon murders you? Also I theorize that the reason why Theadore looks the way he is is becouse of his father stealing the “potrait of an obsession” but I will talk about it in another post becouse oh boy do I have stuff to say, oh and also I Bet that in canon her full dress is so cool but I also like what I gave her especially I chose pink becouse I find it expeccially whit orange such a “childish” like combination and I guess that’s the theme of the Ostergards, childish and bratty

Now for Agnes I went very modern simply becouse if I remember right she helped her husband whit experiments and was kind of his partner in crime as in actual crime, but I don’t know …I think I could have done better btw I love how evryone is so depressed in their portraits but her and Eliza are so chill, but like Eliza is smiling all happy, she has this smug smirk like- PLEASE FORGOTTEN HILL give me more of this woman! Also I chose green becouse she gives me vibes of “I will melt you in acid if you disrespect me again”

I LOVE how Emily turned out! I really wanted her to look like a teapot…(don’t ask) and I guess it works She also did like nothing wrong like girl just went to speak to her husband and mf just k her like?? Good for her for tearing him limb to limb slay I KNEW from the moment I saw her in mementos that her dress was blue! Aha!

And Last but not least Lillian who I guess could have looked good even in a longer dress but I think that the “thin piece of cloth falling from the dress to cover the legs” suited her for the whole ghost thing yk , also I want to see her too in future games becouse I NEED her to see her daughter again! (Camille) once she is freed from the mandragore! Also gave her yellow becouse I feel like they were the heltiest family before her passing so yay yellow color of joy

I want to draw them soon again

Thank you for reading bye ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I saw the colored version of your Fierce Warrior art and once again you slay!! ✨️✨️ hopefully you keep the color scheme for that Fierce art cause it looks aesthetically pleasing!👍but it's up to you. Also, I think it's interesting that Fierce is older than everyone else but that's to be expected since he's the many great grand papi for Link. 😅🤣☺️

And it totally makes sense for him to be serious and laid back. I also imagine that he is probably more mature too 😆

I know his wife gets a son but what if it was a daughter instead? 🤔 😅😅

I'm slowly going through my asks again 😭💓✨

Thank you so much!! 😭😭🥰��

And I'm glad to hear that you find the colours pleasing, I'm still playing around for his actual outfit before his deity days! 👀👀

Man loves simplicity but for Lu he decided to bring in the symbols that means the most to him and had is outfit made with a little more than his usual~😩✨

I'm still trying to figure out the style I want to run with and what would be visually pleasing for the comic and oneshot scenes!! But hopefully I'll get there soon! And I still have a lot to finish planning like the characters and setting before getting to more sketches from the actual storyline 😓

Like imagine Fierce discovering the Sheikah slate when he joins lu and is like: my ancestors finally got something right besides trying to overthrow the King. And he would say it so nonchalantly and poor Wild would be sweat dropping😭😭😭💞

Fierce's age is around mid 30s to near 40s! He looks so daddy though 😓✨

Yeah, Time to him is like an older teenager that's trying to act mature to keep the balance but he knows that Time is a Link and has his mischievous days ☠️ they also be having that 'old' married men talk for real while sitting at a campfire and having deep meaningful conversations about their travels and wives 😭😭💓

And I don't want to spoil anything for the actual storyline but his wife thinks the baby is a girl but Fierce is dead set that it's a boy 💗👀

Imagine his wife be like: if they're a boy, it's Link and if they're a girl, it's Linkle. But Fierce would have the look of being: I'm so done. ☠️

I also have a mini side project for sage during totk that I'm obsessed with that was inspired by my own sage ai-

I keep playing Tears of the Kingdom (SPOILERS)

The Like enemies are the worst

I hate them

Yona is such a sweetie

They wrote Sidon and Link's relationship to be romantic in this and added a girlfriend to Sidon for deniability

Yona even calls me Sidon's 'true companion'

The people making tutorials for every little thing have my heart because I am dumb of ass

I cant be the only one who avoids the depths like my life depends on it

Its not even the depths, the chasms just make me almost have panic attacks

Anyways there is a chasm under Zora domain

Its free on enemies and has a forge

Im terrified of the dark

Also there is Zora statues

Why is Link dick sucking height for everyone

Sidon, Rauru, Ganon

I mean

I dont write porn someone else do that for me

Not that sad Link cant suck dick I just cant write it

Anywaysss

I would go to the Tulin air temple but there is an ice spider there

They gave Link so many slutty slutty outfits

Making Link wear the hylian hood when he opens a memory looks funny

LEAVE ZELDA ALONE

Why doesnt Master Sword ever talk to ME

Why does it only talk to Zelda

Maybe there was a mix up because goddess Hylia only talks to Link

Imagine

Zelda looks kind of like Sonia's daughter and I wonder if Ganon thinks she is

The Zonai clothing is stunning

Why does Ganondorf have to be so evil

Slip resistance is like the most useless thing in this fucking game

Because it does nothing

[badsalmonella]

Yeah okay so I just discovered my new King Arthur media it's called A Kid In King Arthur's Court, it's about a baseball playing loser child being sent to the Middle Ages due to an earthquake opening up a time rift in the ground and meeting King Arthur and not only becoming his new royal advisor but also scoring a date with his daughter.

Everyone thinks he's a magical being, he uses his quirked up 90's boy charms to remind King Arthur of what it takes to be a kind caring king again. He teaches King Arthur slang and gives him bubble gum. King Arthur is the grossest old man in this movie, I hope they do a remake of this film a couple decades from now so they can get an old Andrew Burnap to be in this. Also Daniel Craig is in this movie this is his haircut

I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW MUCH OF A SLAY THE END OF THIS MOVIE IS. THE KID GETS A HOME RUN USING A BAT NAMED EXCALIBUR AND KING ARTHUR IS SHOWN WATCHING IN THE BLEACHERS IN AN ALL DENIM OUTFIT. THIS IS THEEEE BAR FOR ARTHURIAN MEDIA TAKE NOTES EVERYONE!!

#I just noticed the poster says Joust Do It. #C I N E M A

[kirarinlovesidols]

Some genshin men as fathers headcannons i did at midnight cause i couldn't sleep

Also i tried to keep it gender neutral but i have little to no experience in writing and it might have seemed AFAB oriented cause well, I'm afab myself. So i'm very sorry if it's bad or cringy, idk. Just did it for fun.

Mondstadt

Diluc

‌At first he wasn't sure about what he should do or how. He never really imagined himself as a father but even if he were inexperienced the ginger was more than willing to try if you were to be by his side.

‌Strikes me as the worrywart type of dad. He wants his kids to have a free childhood instead of being restrained by their responsibilities as ragnvindrs but he still would rather have them where he can see them.

‌Kinda busy with work but still makes time for his family.

‌Anything they want he'll give them but doesn't let them become spoiled cause of it.

‌The kids love Kaeya and he hates it with every fiber of his being(he's actually just jealous).

‌Had a boy and a girl btw.

Kaeya

‌Had a girl and let me tell you... the way he acts with her is the most annoyingly cute thing ever. Ya know how that guy from Fullmetal alchemist acts with his daughter? It's Kaeya.

‌Of course he doesn't want to restrain her. That's against his personal beliefs and values. He just fears someone might take his little girl away from him.

‌Is the type of dad who is very particular about the way his kid dresses. He won't tell them what to wear or anything, he just gives very direct criticism.

‌"Dad what do you think about my outfit?"

‌"This is not your best combination. I told you to slay, didn't i?"

‌He paints her nails and gossips with her about things he heard from Rosaria at Diluc's tavern.

‌Talking about him, Diluc has to babysit his niece sometimes and it's seriously the most hilarious thing ever cause he has no idea how to interact with this kid. But he doesn't have the heart to tell her to quiet down so he ends up becoming the uncle who accidentally spoils her.

Albedo

‌Oh boy this one was a little complicated. Due to being a homunculus he wondered if he was even capable of reproducing in the first place, which ended up in you two becoming parents.

‌His fascination for life made him eager to be responsible for the direct creation and guidance of a new being but you needed to make something very clear to him. That you wouldn't stand for letting him see your kid as a test subject of sorts.

‌You two talked about it, cried, it was angsty and messy. He didn't have the intention of making it seem like he saw his child as a lab rat but he would be lying if he said he didn't get carried away with his overall thought process.

‌Time passed and your child was finally born. A boy who was almost a carbon copy of his father with the exception of his eye colour that resembled yours.

‌You two happened to be blessed with a quiet baby. The only moment he seemed to cry was when he was hungry or needed to change diapers.

‌One thing you two noticed is how your son seemed interested in Albedo's experiments. He loved watching his father work. It was a little worrying for you to leave him there cause what if an explosion happened or something? But you couldn't bring yourself to say no when your adorable son looked at your husband's working self with so much admiration, affection and curiosity.

‌The little one also developed a love for drawing if the crayon all over your walls were any indication. Albedo convinced you to not clean or paint over it, these drawings could turn into precious memories after all.

‌As much as your son and Albedo seemed close, unfortunately, the chief alchemist couldn't spend as much time as he would like with his son so every little moment was cherished.

‌And on rare opportunities when he had a free schedule you would plan family days and do all kinds of things like picnics, taking walks around mondstadt, having lunch at good hunter or just cuddling under the blankets when the cold seeped in.

Bennett

‌Needless to say he cried an entire river when you told him you wanted kids. He could never have imagine himself as a father or in a relationship with anyone for that matter.

‌Absolutely worried about his bad luck, what if it hurts your child? Benny needed a lot of reassuring from you tbh.

‌In the end he just decided he would try his hardest to protect you two if his bad luck ever threatened your lives.

‌You two had a little girl and this man...he was determined to be the best father in the world.

‌Very very affectionate, kisses and hugs were a must for him. He really wanted his daughter to feel loved and to not ever experience loneliness like he did.

‌Benny is a very fun dad! takes your child to little adventures he planned(they're all very safe of course) and would encourage her imagination. Countless times they would get home covered in either mud or dirt cause they apparently "had to save a princess from hillichurls." You were happy as long as they were having fun.

‌Your daughter sees him as a hero and that's his biggest pride. Seeing her brag to her friends about how cool her dad is just makes your hearts swell with love.

Venti

‌Oh wow? Getting him to settle down at all were a hugeass feat but a kid??? Jesus Christ he really is down BAD.

‌Your son was an absolute sweetheart most of the time(in front of you at the very least) however if his father were involved things would take a turn for the worse cause you see.... they're both menaces to society.

‌He was very mischievous and a prankster to boot. The worst part was how his father enabled his mischief and sometimes even joined! No one is safe.

‌They are literally this: ":3c" , ">:3c".

‌Jokes apart people always get shocked when they learn Venti has a son since they look like brothers instead.

‌The fact his father is an archon kinda just went straight through his head. This kid absolutely does not care, his dad is his dad and that's all there is to it. Venti almost cried ngl.

‌Ok ok, listen to me. Venti's archon form has wings, Right? Only fair your kid inherits those as well. Your husband taught him how to hide them away when needed but it's the most adorable thing to watch both of them flying and playing around.

‌Piggyback rides are a must btw. Venti loves taking his adorable son to walks and sometimes even sings lullabies which never fail to make him sleepy. It's a very cute sight.

‌Truly, your little angel is the apple of your eye.

Razor

‌Oh boy this one is a bit tricky, cause you see....Razor doesn't know much about this kind of thing.

‌He has seen the birth of some of his packmates but he had no idea how it happened at all. Yet, here you two were. About to become parents.

‌You had to tell him the little you knew and asked Lisa to help and educate him on the subject. He was pretty determined to learn so he could properly protect you and his future "pups".

‌You had twins, two boys. And they turned out to be absolute fucking menaces.

‌They're so energetic no one other than themselves and sometimes Razor can keep up with them.

‌Your family of 4 decided to live near wolvendom. You had a cottage built in a safe area, all of this for your husband's comfort.

‌The silver haired man got better at talking and interacting with people as time passed but he still wanted to avoid it if he could, so you two talked about it and decided to raise your children in a balance between human society and nature.

‌Razor's way of bonding and playing with them is either roughhousing or taking them to hunt. He isn't very good when it comes to advice about complicated matters but he does tries his best.

‌He usually prefers to use physical touch as a reassuring method for the twins cause for him it's way easier than talking.

Liyue

Zhongli

‌Alright, this is pretty obvious but he's the perfect dad. This man has so much knowledge and has lived through so much shit that it's actually surprising he doesn't have an "heir" yet.

‌You two were blessed with a little girl who is literally, his princess.

‌Seriously she's so young but so polite already!!!! very kind and sometimes a little too mature for her age but you aren't that surprised considering who her father is.

‌Zhongli likes doing her hair, helping her pick her clothes and feels more than delighted in having her on his arms as often as possible.

‌Don't @ me on this but i'm a monsterfucker/kemono mimi enthusiast and i was bound to include my own fucking biases into this. He's a dragon and so is your baby.

‌Usually he retains his human form due to it being way more convenient but Zhongli does enjoy letting out his more draconic features when you are in the comfort of your house away from possible prying eyes and your daughter is the same.

‌It's the most adorable thing to see her cuddling with her father. Their tails tightly coiled together like some kind of hand-holding. Both of them letting out low and barely audible purrs(I don't care if dragons don't purr, they do know cause I said so, imagine it sounds like growling but softer and quieter).

‌He likes taking her to sightseeing as well! Your husband knows countless great spots that would make someone's jaw drop.

Xiao

‌Ok. Xiao had a lot of complicated feelings when you told him he was going to be a father. First of all he had trouble wrapping his head around it at ALL.

‌Him??? The conqueror of demons having a child???what???for the first time in eons he felt like his brain truly blue screened(even more than when he actually came into terms with the fact he loved you). Also he had no idea how to interact with children let alone even...how he was supposed to act as one of their guardians.

‌He needs constant reassuring. Tell him he won't be doing this alone, you'll be with him and both of you can learn along the way since there's no such a thing as perfect parents.

‌As much as it hurts me to say it the Yaksha is a bit of a distant dad. It's not cause he doesn't love his child, he does he REALLY does. But Xiao constantly worries about hurting your daughter and can't really understand how he helped you creating something so adorable and pure.

‌He usually watches over her from the shadows and shows up as soon as she calls his name just like he does to you.

"Papa!!!"

A little green haired girl yells to the wind.

"What is it? Are you in danger? Or perhaps your mother?"

The adeptus shows up almost instantly.

"No!! I just wanted to see you!!!"

She smiles as brightly as the sun as she says this.

"....I-I...I already told you to only call me when emergencies happen, didn't i?"

Her father's cheeks bloom in a rosy color. He looks to the side, hiding his face. Trying his best not to fall over dead due to his daughter's cuteness.

‌Xiao isn't very affectionate but he does pat his baby's head every now and then. Sometimes he sits through her talking about her day while making flower crowns, a soft but rare smile resting on his lips.

‌Do not let his tsundere behavior fool you this man is head over heels for his family. He loves you and your kid to death and he would die for both of you.

Chongyun

‌He's a very very very awkward dad. Don't even get me started on it, alright?

‌Low-key kinda strict to his son since he has to pass down his exorcist knowledge but won't force him to do more than what he can handle.

‌Unfortunately your baby inherited his father's constitution so you and your husband try to keep the house cool during the summer.

‌They usually eat popsicles together after training and talk about what he needs to improve and what he got right.

‌When it comes to comforting it's kinda gonna be up to you cause oh my god. Chongyun is as socially awkward as someone can get and your kid is very very shy. So you usually hug him or do some tricks with your vision so he can relax and stop overthinking.

Xingqiu

‌Doesn't have much time to spend with his family, unfortunately. Even if he has an older brother Xingqiu agreed to be responsible for a good amount of the feiyun commerce's guild job.

‌But for some reason, only god knows how, he always seem to be waiting for his little boy every night, holding a new book each time. An affectionate look in his eyes and ready to tell another bedtime story today too.

‌Xingqiu also encourages his son's creativity and they have writing competitions or sometimes even create a story together. You happen to be the judge of the contents btw, it hurts to choose everytime.

‌Also this child is an absolute little shit and he bullies his friends just as much as his father used to in his younger days. Even his sly smirk is identical, you can't with this duo, you just can't.

Inazuma

Arataki Itto

‌Oh my god. What a mess, istg. Listen, Itto loves his children to death and if anything happens to them he goes absolutely ballistic.

‌He brags about how cute they are to everyone.

‌Loves hugging, cuddling or anything physical touch related. He WILL shower them with love and affection and there's nothing they can do about it.

‌Is very eager to teach his 2 boys and 1 girl about their oni lineage, at this point they're already tired of hearing it.

‌Probably the most fun dad out of every genshin boy out there cause whatever his children are playing he immediately joins and takes it to another level.

‌Since Itto is really huge due to his yokai blood your kids are already pretty tall even at a young age and that might scare some other kids. But he's always there to tell them to not ever let oni stereotypes or rumors define who they are.

‌Also needless to say this himbo literally walks around unbothered with 3 yokai children climbing his body like a jungle gym.

‌Fears the day his little girl bring someone home and present them as her partner...no one is good enough for her, no one!!

Gorou

‌Imma be honest. You knew what you were getting into when you married this man.

‌Heat seasons, rut, courting rituals of his kind, you knew about it but it didn't exactly make the whole ride any less surprising.

‌Welcome to the world of being a mother of 4 puppies! 2 boys and 2 girls

‌Jokes aside they're all unbearably adorable and constantly whine for you and Gorou's attention. However as soon they get old enough to speak and walk things get... complicated.

‌They're way too energetic and love playing outside so you need to constantly have an eye on them so they don't get hurt or smth.

‌Nowadays your husband has a lot more opportunities to be with your family since he decided it was better to retreat from being a general in order to be able to raise his children properly.

‌The ex-general can be a little stern and use a little bit of an "intimidating" tone to reprimand them if they do something wrong but that's pretty rare. Usually Gorou can be seen brushing their tails, cuddling them to sleep, nuzzling their cheeks or giving them scratches behind the ears as they sleep on his lap.

‌He doesn't mind being himself true to his friendly, loveable and big hearted shiba nature when it's around your family.

Kaedehara Kazuha.

‌I think out of everyone he might be the most understandable and calm father ever. Does not raise his voice and always prefer to ask them about their feelings so he can properly understand them.

‌Kazuha didn't imagine he would settle down with anyone but here he is, teaching his daughter how to play the leaf flute.

‌Flowers still come out of his mouth when he speaks and you particularly think it's the most adorable thing ever, he's just so good with his words ♥(you are not biased at all, no sir). But he decided to tone it down a bit near your baby girl so she wouldn't be confused.

‌The samurai uses his anemo vision to play with her sometimes as well. Like engulfing her in a safer version of his chihayaburu and allowing her to "fly" even for a little.

‌Makes a promise to himself to always guide her and to make his family's happiness his top priority.

Kamisato Ayato

‌Another dad who cannot be with his child as much as he wish he did!

‌But my Lord he's trying, he tries so so hard to come back home as soon as possible but that's not always an option so he has to resort to letters or gifts.

‌It really does upsets him that he can't be the present father he wishes he was. Ayato doesn't want his son to feel the loneliness he didn't really allow himself to feel at the time due to having to take over the Kamisato clan head position.

‌When the commissioner IS able to return home he returns eager to see you, the love of his life and his baby boy waiting for him at the door.

‌One of the things Ayato loves doing is kissing your forehead. He thinks it's an adorable way to express his love for you and he happens to do that to your kid as well.

‌When they play shogi he always lets his son win, he absolutely cannot see his sad face, it breaks his heart.

Thoma

‌Alright, father who? He's the mother here. Not you, not anyone else, it's him.

‌He cooks, cleans and absolutely refuses to let you do anything(you have to force him to let you help) and also cause you're kinda banned from the kitchen. I'll leave the reason to y'all's imagination.

‌Anyway he's totally a perfect dad. All your 3 daughters love him to death and for a reason, he has so much golden retriever energy it's impossible to hate him.

‌Is the type that wakes his kids up by kissing their cheeks or tickling them. He has so much love to give, the sight makes your heart melt.

‌The hot-pot game turned into a regular thing between your family and boy...as always he ends up eating all the weird stuff, he's very unlucky.

‌Nags a bit but means well.

Sneznaya

Childe/Ajax

‌So, we got to Ed Sheeran huh?/j, alright alright sorry not sorry.

‌Anyway y'all saw this man. His family is huge and so is yours. You had triplets all gingers full of freckles, his genes strangled yours pretty much ( do not @ me abt actual biology i only work with anime logic).

‌Ya know how he treats Teucer? Imagine that but 5x worse. So you have to be the "boring" parent sometimes and tell him, for the love of god, stop giving his sons so many gifts, they have enough already.

‌You worry they won't be able to learn about humility so you told him to knock it off for a bit and he reluctantly agreed(the kids still get what they ask for 90% of the time tho).

‌Ajax is actually a big softie underneath his stupid fatui mask so it's pretty normal to see him hugging his boys or peppering kisses all over their faces. And he won't stop that until they're angsty teens probably.

‌Takes them to ice fishing or declares they'rel having a snowball fight(which they all force you to participate). Childe loves saying "It's an easy victory buy i still won't hold back" until the triplets are involved. He can and will let them win, he just wants to see their smiles.

JACOBIN FICTION CONVENTION MEETING 4: IN THE REIGN OF TERROR: THE ADVENTURES OF A WESTMINSTER BOY(1888)

1. The Introduction

Well hello there again, dearest readers! I’m back at it again and this time I brought you something more obscure.

Honestly, I would’ve never found out about this book had I not seen the category for books set in the French Revolution era on Wikipedia after a deliberate google search.

“In the Reign of Terror” is an adventure novel aimed at young boys that was published in 1888 by one G. A. Henty, an English novelist who has other adventure novels to his name too, but today we’ll only take a look at this one.

It’s available on Project Gutenberg in the ebook format and is in public domain so it’s free to download, which is how I obtained the book.

2. The Summary

The book takes place in the French Revolution era, specifically from 1790 to about 1792. It tells the story of Harry Sandwith, a boy whose physician father sends him from London to Burgundy to live with Marquis de St. Caux and his family.

As the brother of the Marquis had been cured by Harry’s father during his stay in London, the entire arrangement was his idea. The Marquis himself also believes that by having an English companion, his sons can learn a lot about English customs while Harry learns the language and the traditions of France.

But as the Revolution is drawing nearer than ever, clouds gather above the heads of Harry’s host family and Harry himself...

This is the basic premise of the story, but how did the finished product turn out? Let’s find that out for ourselves, Citizens!

3. The Story

Now, at first the story itself seems a bit implausible on the level of the premise. The Marquis believes that his sons should learn a thing or two about masculinity and sports from Harry, as English boys are supposedly more manly than their “feminine” French peers.

I find it hard to believe that a French nobleman would think this way but I was still willing to suspend my disbelief somewhat because Anglophiles do exist and despite the rivalry between France and the UK, the two countries did borrow bits and pieces of culture from each other.

Here’s the part that gave me pause and kind of ruined the experience for me. The entire book reeks of a sense of English superiority. Harry, the main character, is English and is portrayed as the bravest, strongest and most masculine member of the cast, while his French companions, Ernest and Jules, the sons of the Marquis, are basically treated like feminine “sissies”.

(Spoiler alert!)

For example, in the beginning of Harry’s adventures, the daughters of the Marquis are attacked by a rabid dog and who saves them? Harry, of course. This is one of the instances where the author demonstrates how strong English boys are and this is the moment after which Harry is finally seen as an equal by the noble siblings.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m all for patriotism and taking pride in your country. I’m Russian and proud of it. However, too much pride and you get this obnoxious sense of superiority. If you need a prime example of how that usually plays out, look at the Axis during WW2.

What Henty chooses to portray is specifically a sense of superiority. Characters like Harry’s father take pride in the fact that England has less strict class divisions, that apparently English commoners have already obtained more liberties while the French peasants are merely a mob of bloodthirsty savages, etc.

Don’t know about you, Citizens, but I really don’t like such narratives shoved in my face and considering how often this nationalism shows up, I had a lot of trouble getting through the story.

I’m all for healthy patriotism that acknowledges the good and the bad in one’s country but this is just too much nationalism for me and I believe that the book would’ve been more enjoyable without this narrative showing up every couple of pages or so like jumpscares in a bad horror movie.

4. The Characters

I know this was the 19th century so the audiences were probably not pampered with complex stories and characters as much yet, but honestly I didn’t find Harry a truly likable and relatable protagonist.

(Spoiler alert!)

He starts out as a pretty average school student but while in France he proves to be heroic - killing a rabid dog, slaying a man eating wolf (not completely by himself) and generally always proving himself to be the manly hero that Ernest and Jules can never be. Basically it was easy to predict that he will emerge from any trouble victorious so I didn’t have many reasons to be worried about him.

The sons and the daughters of the Marquis all end up liking him. Too much may I add.

In short, I personally got a bit of Harry Stu vibe. 😉

He does have one glaring flaw that unfortunately doesn’t do him any favors in my eyes. The English superiority complex that the author expresses in the story shines in Harry brighter than the Sun. He doesn’t express much empathy either.

(Spoiler alert!)

When Harry saves a man from getting attacked by an assassin and sees that the man is scared out of his mind, the first thing Harry feels towards him is disdain for apparently being a “pussy”. Um, hello, Harry?! How would you react if you got attacked out of the blue! Not everyone is as “strong and manly” as you are!

Then Harry also regrets saving the man when it turns out to be Robespierre. Our protagonist, dear Citizens!

Speaking of Robespierre, here (and this goes for most French characters) he is portrayed as a weak feeble “sissy”, thirsty for blood but neat and frugal in outfit and lifestyle, someone who won’t hesitate to have half of France slaughtered. Of course. 🙄

The female characters are bland helpless ingénues. Also typical of the literature of the time period.

By the way, Robespierre is the only revolutionary who is actually featured in the story. Marat and Danton are mentioned but it’s all negative in their department too, especially when it comes to Marat.

The Parisian crowd is little more than a bloodthirsty mob of savage uneducated peasants ready to slaughter all nobles just because they’re well, nobles.

Honestly, nothing new here.

5. The Setting

Honestly, I feel like there weren’t that many descriptions and those that were present simply weren’t vivid enough to immerse myself into the story. Too many descriptions are bad too, of course, but here the opposite happens - too little descriptions so sometimes the surroundings feel like vacuum and there’s not enough world building to imagine yourself in that era, beside the characters.

It’s all just bland caricatured setting one would expect from an amateur puppet show at daycare.

Remember, dear Citizens. Even if you write about your own era and country, world building is extremely important so please don’t underestimate the power of good and vivid descriptions, just use them in moderation.

Anyway, onto the final point.

6. The Conclusion

Despite all the drawbacks, I didn’t quite hate the book. I simply think it could’ve been written a lot better, without shoving the supposed superiority of England in our faces, without bland characters, without the unlikeable protagonist, without cardboard settings and definitely without machismo and layers upon layers of Thermidorian propaganda.

I wouldn’t recommend this story unless you really want to kill time and have nothing else to do.

With that in mind, allow me to conclude the fourth meeting of our Convention. Stay tuned for the announcement of the topic of the next meeting and have a good day, Citizens.

Love,

- Citizen Green Pixel

[v-hope]

Someone speaks badly about you on a show

—and they defend you, ofc.

Pairings: OT7 x Reader

Genre: I guess fluff for default, angst

Request by @ally22042000: "Hey, I saw that request for reactions are open. Can I have one with the boys ( just Yoongi and JK if all of them are to much), where they are at an award show or interview or something like that and someone talks disrespectfull about the reader? Thx so much💜 and have a nice day."

A/N: I hope this is what you had in mind, I enjoyed writing these 💕 Also, you're an idol in a couple of them and in the rest you're not. I hope you like it!

Kim Seokjin

Your boyfriend absolutely lived for whenever he got asked to be an MC at award shows.

So, naturally, he was very hyped up once he was handed his lines and had to go up on stage with two other idols – one of them being his good friend of many years, and the other one being a new artist who had debuted last year.

It was simple. Read the cards. Just read the goddamn paper notes you had been given and that was it. But, apparently, the idol by his side was way too new to this whole thing, for instead of reading what he had been handed to, he fixed his eyes on Jin to his side.

"Thank God I got to be with the fun one of your relationship".

Seokjin's eyes went to lock with his out of instinct, having not really processed what had just happened yet.

"The fun one?" his eyebrows furrowed.

"Yeah" the idol nodded his head. "Y/N would've made this so boring".

Jin glanced for a brief second to his friend, as if to verify he had heard just the same and his mind wasn't making it up – his awkward expression itself doing that for him.

Nonetheless, as much as he wanted to snap at him, he decided to be the better one, maybe just because he knew he was still live and didn't want to make a scene right in front of everyone.

That didn't stop him from putting him in his place though.

"Then you clearly haven't had the pleasure to meet her and witness her high class humour" Jin spoke into the camera, later placing his eyes on his friend. "Don't you think, hyung-nim?"

"I have never laughed harder than with her, Seokjin-ssi" he replied immediately.

And then out of nowhere, Jin dug his hand in his pocket, throwing multiple heart shaped red papers that had everyone screaming in a second. "Love you, baby. Don't let anyone tell you you're not funny".

What's the saying? Kill 'em with kindness? Well, Seokjin had just slayed that poor guy's soul.

Min Yoongi

"Hey, it's BTS!" the MC greeted cheerfully once the seven guys came on the shot.

One by one, they went up to her to give her a quick hug before they took their place standing next to her.

Up until then, everything was fine, and maybe things would've remained that way if she had just said nothing after Yoongi hugged her. Instead, she laughed, catching him off guard.

"At least you are polite" she shook her head in amusement.

Yoongi pouted naturally because of his confusion. "Who of us hasn't been polite?"

"Oh, no. Not you" she shook her head one more time, only to clarify: "Your girlfriend".

"Y/N-ssi?" Hobi was the one to ask on his hyung's behalf, being just as puzzled as everyone else by that statement.

At the nod of confirmation coming from the MC, Yoongi brought the microphone up to his lips. "But you've never even met her, where'd you get that from?"

"The video of her not even looking at the paps taking pictures... when you were at the airport the other day".

Yoongi's hold on the mic tightened, suddenly becoming protective of you. "So just because she's a private person she's impolite?"

"She didn't even acknowledge your fans. Come on, that was just very–"

"She's not an idol" he cut her off. "She doesn't have to put up with all of this, especially when she's not comfortable with all the attention".

"She should've known this would happen when she decided to date you".

"Guys…" Namjoon tried to stop both of them from arguing any further, for they had apparently forgotten they were still live.

But Yoongi was already done, slightly shaking his head before he put an end to it for once and for all: "She's given up enough for me already, I'm not asking her to be all bubbly around paps or our fans when she clearly isn't comfortable with it. If that's impolite to you then go off, I guess, but I'm the one dating her and I know better".

On to the next topic now.

Jung Hoseok

"Hoseok!" the girl interviewing them read effusively on her phone.

They had been interviewed person by person that day, since a few influencers had gotten the chance to record short clips with BTS to upload to their social media. This one, so far, had been one of their favourites, for its dynamics consisted in nothing but the young woman going through her Twitter reading fan questions or just letting them know about cute comments they had made.

However, that was soon to change when she caught Hobi's attention, continuing: "I loved you in the concert last week, I got to meet Y/N and she was the cu– oh, irrelevant much?" she mumbled with a small, breathy laugh, before dismissing the topic and scrolling down in search of another tweet.

Hoseok's eyebrows knitted together. "Wha–"

"Oh, here's a good one" she smiled as if nothing had happened, as if she had not heard him; having the seven men exchange uncomfortable glances. "Jimin, you and your girlfriend are such couple goals, I can't w–"

"Um…" Hoseok cut her off, stealing a quick glance to Jimin, who looked just as out of it, before his eyes fell back on the girl's. "How come Jimin's girlfriend is worth talking of and mine isn't?"

"She's an idol" she answered as if it was evident.

His jaw tightened. "So people are only worthy when they're famous now?"

"Well, no..." she uselessly tried to fix it.

"Then I believe you should respect her enough not to call her irrelevant or skip comments at the mention of her".

"But there's nothing interesting about Y/N anyway, so…"

That was all Hobi needed to turn his head to look at his members before he shook his head in defeat. "We're done here, guys. I'm not listening to any more of this nonsense".

Neither were they, which is why they were all soon to follow your boyfriend out of there.

Kim Namjoon

"So, Namjoon-ah" the entertainer's eyes focused on him, "I watched a few pictures of you at your girlfriend's graduation the other day" he smiled. "You guys looked so cute!"

A big smile spread over Joon's lips, recalling the pride he had felt that day because of you, being the happiest to have been able to be there for you.

"Aw, thank you" he said truthfully, his dimples making their appearance. "I'm really proud of her".

"You are?" the man asked.

Now, there were two ways to say those words. One with a genuinely intrigued tone, and one that was looking to offend. In this case, given not only his tone but also the way his eyebrows had raised in impression, it had been clear to everyone present that his intention had been the latter.

"I am" he stated simply, hoping that would be as much as the host would say about the topic before he moved on to the next one.

It was not.

"Don't you ever wish you were with someone more successful though?"

Namjoon's jaw tightened visibly, his eyes turning colder. "What does that even mean?"

"I'm just saying, you're Kim Namjoon" the man shifted on his seat. "Worldwide known idol, producer, rapper… whereas she's just… ordinary".

The way he had said that last word made it seem like being like that was the worst of things, and Namjoon did not like it one bit.

"Her achievements are just as important as mine" he was fast to talk in your defence. "Just because she isn't a part of the idol industry doesn't mean her dreams and passions are any less worthy of recognition than mine".

That alone had the interviewer apologising in a second, realising then how bad he had messed up. Because, in all honesty, Namjoon couldn't really care any less about you being famous or not – he would always be proud of you and your achievements no matter what.

Park Jimin

"Ah, Park Jimin!" the host exclaimed after a picture of you had popped up on the screen in between them. "You really got lucky with this one, didn't you?"

That sure did bring a bright smile to his lips, for he absolutely lived for these moments, when people acknowledged how beautiful you were.

Nonetheless, that smile of his was soon erased when the same guy added: "You should control her more, though".

With that and a frown adorning your boyfriend's face, the picture previously displaying on the screen was gone and replaced with one of you in a night dress from two days ago instead.

"Control her more?" Jimin asked through gritted teeth.

"Yeah" he nodded his head. "She has a boyfriend now, she can't go around looking that hot, it might get the wrong attention".

Now, Jimin himself hadn't really liked it when you went out dressed like that, but he was your boyfriend, so he did have some kind of right to feel a little jealous of other guys thirsting over his girlfriend when she was out alone with her friends, didn't he?

This guy, however? Neither what he said was appropriate on so many levels, nor did he have the right to talk about you and your outfit like that.

"I think you should think before you speak and induce people to have unhealthy relationships" your boyfriend spoke in a low, calm voice.

Controlling you? What kind of bullshit was that?

"Come on now, I was joking" the man brushed it off with a laugh, and a very nervous one at that.

"Were you really?" Jimin raised one of his eyebrows, not believing a word. "Even if you were" he went on before the guy could open his mouth to reply, "you should maybe reflect on yourself and, instead of telling me how to treat my girlfriend because of how provocative she looks, think of why you, a guy who's over his forties, thinks that way of someone who could easily be his daughter".

He had not been rude. He had not raised his voice. Yet he did somehow manage to look so fucking scary to the man in front.

Kim Taehyung

"Y/N?" the interviewer asked in disbelief, only to scoff after receiving a nod of confirmation from Tae. "Of course she'd end up with one of you guys".

Not only did Taehyung's eyebrows furrow in that moment, but so did everyone else's – his members exchanging dumbfounded looks as your boyfriend looked to the guy in front dead in the eye.

"One of us?"

"Mhm" the guy replied simply. "She always seems to be with whoever is the most famous at the moment, so..." he shrugged.

"She's only been with other two people?" Taehyung raised one of his eyebrows.

"Who just so happened to be the moment's sensation" he reminded him. "And now she's with you".

"You can't help who you fall for" your boyfriend's stare became colder by the second.

"She's just going to break things off with you as soon as your moment of fame passes".

That was it.

"Okay, no" his voice came out like pure venom. "If she broke up with them, it's merely because they were both complete assholes to her".

"Taehyung…" Namjoon discreetly squeezed his wrist from his side.

"No, hyung" he shook his head before fixing his enraged eyes back on the interviewer. "She's the sweetest person there is, it's not her fault us guys fall for her. And it's not her fault either to have dated guys who don't deserve her. She did well to dump them, and I know she won't leave me just because of my fame's status".

And then, as everyone in the room remained silent, being absolutely perplexed by such situation, he shook his head in disappointment once again at the sight of the guy's desperate attempt to come up with something else to say.

"You know" he beat him to it, "for such an overrated interviewer, you are so goddamn misinformed".

Good thing this would get bleeped out by the editors later, that if they ever wanted this to air at all.

Jeon Jeongguk

"It's been a while since we last were together, hasn't it?" the host spoke after they had all sat down on the sofa placed in front of her. "A lot has happened since then…" a cheeky grin curved up her lips when her eyes fell on Jeongguk, "like the maknae finally getting himself a girlfriend?"

A shy bunny smile didn't wait to part Guk's lips, meanwhile his six hyungs started being chaotic like they, by this point, always were.

"He did" Namjoon was the one to answer for him, fondly patting his shoulder.

"Well, congratulations! It was about time you got someone" the woman said with a smile. "Though I must admit I never thought I'd see you with someone like her".

Your boyfriend's previous smile was replaced by slightly parted lips. "Someone like her?"

"I mean" the woman tried to get her point across, "you've said multiple times that IU is your ideal type, and Y/N's just…" she scrunched her nose in a displeased manner, "she's not exactly…"

Oh, no. There was no way in hell Jeongguk was letting her finish that sentence; the idea itself making him mad. That was the reason his shy side was long gone, being replaced by his protective one instead, which had quickly taken over him.

"She's stunning" Guk spoke in a low, determined voice. "IU is just a celebrity crush. Y/N's the woman I am in love with" he established without hesitation. "I really don't understand why you're bringing this up".

Although taken aback by Jeongguk's sudden way with his words, not having expected such outburst coming from the quietest member when it came to interviews, the woman went on:

"I'm just sayin–"

"No" Guk cut her off, shaking his head hastily, "you have nothing to say about my preferences, you don't get a say on us".

End of conversation.

Irish Times - Cyberbabe Gets Real

Article appeared on the Irish Times website, dated to 23rd June 2001, and was written by Steven Poole, author of 'Trigger Happy: The Inner Life of Videogames'. Article features a look into the history of Lara and what she is as a character.

It's Valentine's Day, 1968. In a hospital in the south London neighbourhood of Wimbledon, a daughter is born to Lord and Lady Henshingly-Croft. The girl has a drawerful of silver spoons in her mouth. Between the ages of three and 11, she is privately tutored at home; she then attends Wimbledon High School for Girls and Gordonstoun.

At the latter, she discovers a passion for rock climbing in the mountains of Scotland. (She also takes up shooting, but is soon banned for showing "too keen an interest".) By the time she is 18, everyone can see she has a wild streak, but her parents believe she can be thoroughly civilised - and eventually married off to the Earl of Farringdon - after three years at a Swiss finishing school.

While in Switzerland, however, the young woman takes to extreme skiing and spends a holiday pursuing the sport in the Himalayas.

On the return journey, her plane crashes deep in the mountains, and she is the only passenger left alive. Somehow she survives and, two weeks later, staggers into a mountain village. By this time, the course of her life has changed. She feels truly alive only when travelling alone. Lara Croft has decided to become an adventurer.

Or you could look at it this way: Lara Croft was born on the screen of a computer in an English video-game studio in 1995. First, she was a pencil sketch on paper, then a series of more detailed illustrations. Next, her vital statistics were plotted on a VDU screen. Thousands of triangles meshed together to build a computerised outline of a female form.

At this stage, Lara would have looked like a sculpture in chicken wire. Then the figure was "skinned" - wrapped in shaded, coloured surfaces to approximate a clothed human being. Lastly, she was animated: taught to walk, somersault, run and pull herself up on rocky ledges. Virtual worlds were also built around her to test her physical abilities to the limit.

Lara Croft and the Tomb Raider franchise are the products of Core Design - the game-development studio where Lara was born - and Eidos Interactive, its British parent. The man who fathered her was an artist in his early 20s called Toby Gard.

"When I came up with the idea for Tomb Raider," he says, "it wasn't necessarily going to be a female character. We wanted a real-time cinematic game, and I designed a couple of characters; one was a girl, one was a bloke. Eventually, we realised there was going to be a lot of story element in the game and we couldn't keep both the characters, so it was back down to one." So which should they choose? At the time, a female lead in a game was almost unheard of, Gard says. "There was resistance from marketing quarters, saying that female characters never sold."

Eventually, Core chose Lara as a refreshing antidote to the muscled meatheads that usually populated video games. And boy, did she sell: 26 million units, and counting, earning about $1 billion gross in retail sales.

Having turned her back on the upper-class society of her parents, who terminated her monthly allowance in disgust, Lara metamorphosed into a modern-day Indiana Jones.

For her first commission as a professional tomb raider, she was hired to retrieve the three parts of a mysterious artefact known as the Atlantean Scion. Hurtling through Peru, Rome and the lost city of Atlantis (well, it wasn't lost any more), Lara negotiated booby traps and shot a variety of wildlife, including rats, tigers and, alarmingly, a tyrannosaur.

In later quests, she travelled to Venice, Tibet and the Great Wall of China, snuck around the US military institute Area 51 and battled goons in the London Underground. Along the way, Lara was constantly learning. On the trail of a weird dagger that could turn you into a dragon, Lara discovered that she could climb walls, flip through 180 degrees while jumping or swimming, and wade into shallow pools of water.

By the time of her next adventure she could even get down on her hands and knees - in order to negotiate low tunnels and ventilation ducts - as well as monkey-swing from walkways and run much faster than she ever had. She could even blink. The programmers at Core extended Lara's capabilities with each new game, exploiting the fact that she had become a star.

Every year, another sequel popped up just before Christmas and went straight to the top of the video-game charts. Meanwhile, Eidos, Lara's parent company, was becoming a stock-market darling. In 1998, the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, named the British firm the world's fastest-growing company, and in the summer of 1999 Eidos's share price was trading at a delirious high of $18.20.

Lara Croft, we must note, has brains as well as beauty. She is said by her biographers to have penned several travel books, including A Tyrannosaurus Is Jawing At My Head and the follow-up, Slaying Bigfoot. But she clearly does not read the newspapers or watch television, for in none of her adventures do we see any awareness on Lara's part that she has become an international media darling.

The first wave of Lara coverage came shortly after the game's 1996 release, with David James, the Liverpool goalkeeper, explaining to the London Times that he was playing badly because he had been staying up late playing Tomb Raider. In 1997, U2 used specially commissioned digital footage of Lara in action on their Popmart tour.

Lara appeared in comics, and plastic action figures of Lara sold like hot cakes. The original game had appeared on both the Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation consoles, but Sony soon signed an exclusivity deal that meant episodes two and three would appear only on PlayStation.

Then came the acme of media acceptance: Lara on the cover of the Face in June 1997. Not only was this the first time the style magazine had used a digital person on its cover, it was the first time it had allowed an image to interrupt its red masthead. Newsweek, Rolling Stone and Time soon followed suit, and a video for the German pop outfit Die Artze, featuring Lara fighting with members of the band, went heavy-rotation on MTV.

Marks & Spencer produced a range of Tomb Raider III merchandise. Douglas Coupland, the writer of Generation X, contributed to a fey devotional tome entitled Lara's Book. In November, 1998, Tomb Raider and its first sequel were awarded Millennium Product status by the British Design Council.

In 1999, Lara - or rather Core Design, won a BAFTA for her "outstanding contribution to the interactive industry". In 2000, filming began in England on the imminent Tomb Raider feature film, budgeted at $100 million and starring Angelina Jolie. You can now, if you wish, clothe your children in nattily miniature Tomb Raider threads.

Perhaps the cleverest marketing coup was the association, begun in 1999, between Lara Croft and Lucozade, the orange liquid that used to be thought of as medicine for the sick but reinvented itself through the 1990s as a sports drink.

The latest advert has Lara pausing for a friendly Lucozade with her enemies while the player's back is turned. This summer, in order to tie in with the feature film's release, Lucozade will be labelled "Larazade".

They probably call this "synergy", but it works because Lucozade is a product one can imagine Lara using, even if it is unclear where she might find a bottle in a dusty tomb. Jeremy Heath-Smith, the managing director of Core Design and head of global development at Eidos - who, despite Eidos's financial difficulties, was last year paid $3.5 million thanks to a long-standing royalty agreement - says: "The fact that it's a health-giving energy drink matched Lara's profile exactly. I'm not sure Irn-Bru could have the same effect, as nice as Irn-Bru is."

Lara is careful about who she's seen with, for obvious reasons. We can be confident that she would never endorse fruit-flavoured alco-pops, or depilatory creams. But the Lucozade partnership is a marvel of mutual reinforcement: association with Tomb Raider and Lara helps to sell Lucozade.

In his novel Idoru, cyberpunk writer William Gibson imagines Rei Toei, a Japanese-engineered virtual celebrity who rebels against her makers and plots to find herself a physical body. In fact, the Japanese did have a virtual media star in 1997. Software programmers collaborating with Japan's leading modelling agency, Horipro, created Kyoko Date, the world's first digital pop singer. But sales of her debut CD did not live up to expectations. Why? Her face was a combination of features mapped from photographs of famous models; her singing voice was taken from one woman, her speaking voice from another; and her dance moves were digitised from the performances of real dancers. She was far more detailed and "realistic" than Lara Croft was at the time - but in a sense, Kyoko Date looked too real.

Our idoru does not fall into this trap. Lara Croft is attractive because of, not despite, her glossy blankness - that hyper-perfect, shiny computer look. She is an abstraction, an animated conglomeration of sexual and attitudinal signs - breasts, hot pants, shades, thigh holsters - whose blankness encourages the viewer's psychological projection.

Beyond the bare facts of her biography, her perfect vacuity means we can make Lara Croft into whoever we want her to be. If the computer-generated Lara Croft ever became too photo-realistic, too much like an individual woman, says Heath-Smith, "you'd lose some of that feel for her". The plans to finesse the character design for the next-generation Tomb Raider game, coming to Sony's far more visually powerful PlayStation2 some time next year, are "to smooth her off without changing the aesthetics that work".

But will these aesthetics be influenced by the performance of Angelina Jolie in the Tomb Raider film? Lara's creator, Toby Gard, rather approves of the casting. "Yeah, Angelina Jolie certainly looks the part," he says. "She has that certain wild quality which is important - that's what I had in mind." Jolie, we are told, performed most of her stunts; emulating the acrobatic, gravity-defying grace of her digital counterpart in the unforgiving real world resulted in injuries to her knee and shoulder and torn ligaments in her foot.

Bear in mind Lara has already been impersonated by several flesh-and-blood women without danger to her virtual hegemony - the models and actresses Rhona Mitra, Nell McAndrew, Lara Weller, Lucy Clarkson and Vanessa Demouy have all stepped into the boots for promotional appearances. Lara Croft, the virtual character, is the Platonic ideal: a human actress can give a better or worse account of that ideal, but she can never embody it fully, still less outstrip it. In that sense Lara is more like a creature of time-fogged legend than a contemporary "personality".

The rise to ubiquity of Lara Croft came as a surprise to her digital dad. "I never expected to have that happen," Gard says. "You know, as a designer, I'd gone through my life making sketches for these characters, and you think they're yours - then you realise they're not yours at all."

It was the massive success of Lara, in fact, that prompted Gard to leave Core Design and set up his own company, Confounding Factor, before the second Tomb Raider game appeared. "Other people were just doing things with her I didn't agree with," he says, guardedly.

He is working on Galleon, a game he promises "will have the same effect as Tomb Raider had in terms of how far ahead of everything else it's going to be".

It will be interesting to observe how Lara Croft ages. If the franchise is still going in 2020, will she be raiding tombs at the age of 42? There seems no reason why not. What allowed Lara's extraordinary success, after all, was the fact that Gard had created not a singular female character but a new archetype: an image so fluid and malleable that she can cross media barriers without appearing to whore herself.

Odd as it may seem, Lara has never been a primarily sexual being. In the immature world of video games, Lara was a revelation. In contrast to the standard near-pornographic portrayal of helpless women characters, Lara was a Germaine Greer of video games. Sure, she showed some skin, but her wardrobe was practical, rock-climbing, tomb-raiding stuff: shorts, hiking boots, vest, backpack. Gard says this was a deliberate reaction to the digital representations of women around him at the time, which persist today: spangly thongs, S&M corsets, strange spirally metal bras.

"I wanted to make sure it wasn't the thigh-length boot-style stuff," he says. "You can't get emotionally involved with a character like that because it has been objectified. Lara, I felt, had more dignity." It wouldn't make any sense, you understand, to describe the dignified Lara as a sex symbol.

Because "sex symbol", if that overused phrase means anything at all, must mean a person with whom you can imagine having sex - however improbable that may be. Angelina Jolie may be a sex symbol. But Lara can't be. It is in principle impossible to have sex with Lara Croft: she is always and forever unattainable.

And, as we have seen, there are far more overtly sexual depictions of women in video games. So all the prurient fans' artwork - the notorious "Nude Raider" images created by boys disturbingly skilled in computer-aided imaging and posted on the net, and all the leering over Croft's breasts in the chat rooms - these are incidental, a predictably perverse subculture of the fan base, not its raison d'etre.

It seems probable that men who like Lara don't want to have her; they want to be her. That's why they play the game. Lara is a symbol, if anything, of aspirational gender reassignment. In both directions. Men who like trying on a female persona, or women, such as Jolie, who like doing what is usually thought to be men's stuff. To paraphrase Damon Albarn of Blur, Lara works for boys who do girls, or boys who like girls who do boys, or girls who do boys.

And perhaps it is this all-things-to-all-people, don't-you-dare-try-to-pin-me-down quality that has ensured her longevity. For it is axiomatic that the jumping, rolling, sprinting Lara Croft is physically inexhaustible. What is surprising is that over the five years of her career so far, she has also proven inexhaustible as an icon.

Part 1

The year 1497, I stood at the thrown by my father, the king’s side. As the king answers all the prayers of our peasants and soldiers, I stand there listening to all what’s wrong in the world and not knowing if my father really feels bad and deals with the problems or not.

As a group of 7 boys walk up to the throne and kneel, one boy in particular caught my eye. A sparkle shimmered in his eyes. I gulped st his sudden beauty. Yes he was a peasant and his dirt on his skin doesn’t cover the fact he has pure beauty.

“My king, the seven of us wish to become your seven protectors!” The boy with the beautiful black hair and sparkling eyes said.

The king hummed in thought. He looked over towards me.

“Well dear, what do you think of these boys train to be your knights?” I coughed and covered my face. “Excuse me father. But I may have no judgement due to just being princess.”

I say with a bowe.

“My dear daughter. You are next to take the throne I have it yet found knights for your safety as I shall be going into battle soon. These boys that will surely turn into men and will go to battle for you as well.” He says and smiles with encouragement.

All seven boys gulped and looked at each other and shrugged.

The beautiful boy says, “your highness, it would be an honor to serve our princess and king and would honestly be an honor to die for this country and kingdom.” He bows since again and lies his head on his knee.

“Come forth you seven!” The king rises from his throne and the seven walk towards him.

The other knights cautiously watched and takes stance.

“What are thee names of yee.” The king ask.

The beautiful boy looks up and finally noticed me as if I was a brick wall that hit him right in the face. His sparkle flashes brighter and his lips curve into a soft smile and he stutters his name.

“H-Hoseok....lee Hoseok my king.” He bows toward me this time.

“My king, I am shownu.” The man built the same as this supposedly lee Hoseok tells his name. He’s just as beautiful.

“You highness and majesty, I am yoo Kihyun.” He bows as well. I shyly blush as I see all seven boys are just as beautiful as the first. They are like gods.

“Thee I am minhyuk and I’m honored to serve you my princess.”

He bows.

The next boy bows and says. “Hyungwon My king and soon to be queen.” He was the tallest and lean and he swayed like a bird through the air. Perfect gestures.

The boy with soft but strong features smiles. His dimples sparkles and shined. “I am jooheon my king and princess. I am delighted to be you knight.” He bows.

The last boy shyly steps forward and kneels on one knee. Bowing towards me.

“I am thee last of my name my king. I am Im Changkyun. I would be honored to protect and die for thee.” He softly but sincerely says. My heart raced. It was not fair for all seven of these fine men to die for me. “Father I must take these boys into training myself! I would like to pick which one stays at my side and which one must be leader of the knights.”

I lied to my father to take them into my care so they may never see battle.

“Very well my dear. Take them away!” The king sits back down. “And boys! If anyone hurts my baby girl or even touches her I shall take your head and portray it outside my castle walls.” The Kong’s smirks in excitement and true as love can be. All seven boys gulp and look at each other and say. “Yes your majesty!” They bow once again an follow me.

10 years later. I am the age of 26 years old. My father is on his death bed. And I sit there at the edge of his bed and cry. My father holds my hands.

“My dear loving daughter I hope I have trained you well to become the most caring and loving queen to our people. I have heard stories of kingdoms being over thrown by their lovers. I shall never see that while we I am on the other side. I hope you realize what you are doing with that boy. I do not approve of him being king quite yet! I have written in my will that if he shall pass the test he may be king. But you are the fine ruler my sweet daughter.” He talks to me about Hoseok.

“Father how did you know Hoseok and I have been seeing each other?” I say in surprise. He places his cold hand against my cheek.

“My darling daughter, you do not think I know you very well with all my duties but I have been watching you. the way you first laid eyes upon the boy and his friends. That is why I trained them to be your knights. I watch you sneak around at night while I work on our government in my study. I laugh at your silliness to hide your love from me. So I gave the boy a test. He must bring me the head of our enemy to prove his loyalty, than he shall marry my daughter.” I gasp.

“Father! I shall not condone this aggressive battle! I don’t want any of those boys leaving for battle! What if they shall not return?” I yell and sob.

“End of discussion daughter! Leave!” My father yells towards me. And the knights take me and drag me out. My father coughs into rag. And blood coughed out of his mouth into the rag. He lied down and rested some more.

That night Hoseok knocked upon my door. I opened it as I was dressed in nothing but silk see through gown. He looked upon me up and down. He coughed and choked on his words as he was shocked to see me almost naked.

“My princess, I shall not see you like this!” I smirk and grab him by his collar of his blouse. I pulled him forward inside my bedroom.

“Hoseok. My dear Hoseok! My father wishes you to kill the enemy of our kingdom, I shall not let that happen! If you do you may never return.” I now say worried I will lose him for ever.

“My love. We have been seeing one another for 5 years now I have laid my eyes on you and I instantly fell in love with you. I must prove to your father before his death that I am worthy to be your king and lover. I am going in two days.” He says as he lies his forehead against mine. His leans his lips against mine softly. Oh the softness of his lips against mine brings butterflies to my stomach. I wrap my arms around his broad shoulders and deepen the kiss.

“You are so much worthy than that my love. You are my king and my heart. My soul. My life. Make love to me tonight my love. Right now.” I say as I press my tender soft body against his rock hard gently muscular body. He moans softly at me as he pushes me slightly against my king plush bed with satin sheets and black and purple bedding. He lies me down on my back and hovers over my tense body.

“Are you sure you want this my love. It will be uncomfortable and sore for a few. I do not wish to hurt you or make you cry. I want this so badly but I am not born of royalty—-“ I kissed him to shut him up. He blushed and smiled against my lips. I felt up against him and that night we connected in a very way I have never felt before.

The next few days him an I met at night and spent as much time as we could before he left.

That day him and his six brothers had left. He had given me one last kiss before his departure.

A week has passed before my love has come back. I worry every night and stay up. I have not slept in days. I worry he may never return. The night before the boys had returned my father had passed. Good news nor bad news had been passed to him before he could approve my marriage. I cried for three days after my father passed. Sad he had left my world and left the kingdom to me. What if I was not a good queen.

The next morning after three days of my father passed my ceremony was made to be that evening. I was planning the ceremony outfits. When a knight had burst through. It was my knight. Mr. Im Changkyun.

“My dear queen, I am so sorry about the terrible news of our king. But we have another set of bad news and good news. We have brought the heads of many of our enemy Forth upon our walls of the kingdom. But we have lost our dear brother in battle and I shall inform you that our future king will no longer be with us as our king but our king and brother in our hearts.” I dropped everything. “W-who?!” I ran toward Changkyun and I think I scared him. I shook him and pushed him against the wall. “W-who have we lost Changkyun!” I yell at him.

He felt the pain to even say his name and I felt my heart drop. I was scared. I feared the death of my love.

He looked down and sighed. “My queen it has been a long journey. Toward the end of our journey another soldier from battle had followed us almost toward the castle and snuck behind our dear Hoseok. He was killed by the king of that kingdom. He was slayed by the sword of the king. The king also threatened to kidnap and kill you as well or auction you off.” My heart shattered at the words he spoke. I could not handle the pain that has come. Even tho I ha even preparing for the pain but it did not compare to the hope I had.

I screamed. Changkyun jumped in fear and shame. He thought I was gonna kill him out of pain. I did not mean to scream at him. But nothing but screams filled both our ears.

The 5 rest of the boys ran inside my room. I screaming and screaming and anger filled my heart. I slammed everything.

They felt the pain I was in taking.

Kihyun ran toward me along with shownu and they tried to hold me and tell me it will be ok. But screams as if I was being murdered kept filling the room ; it felt like I was. I grabbed a hold of a handle that lied upon shownu’s belt. I unsheathed it. The sword that I shall killmyself with. The boys backed away as they feared I was going to go crazy.

“My queen. Please, we killed the king who murdered our brother.” The words hit me again. My heart just aches.

“I’m so sorry my knights. But I can no longer insure this pain I feel! You six shall rule this kingdom! If anyone asks, I have written a note in my desk!” I said so quickly they had no time to react as the sword slit through my throat. My body fell from with gravity.

The boys shocked and scared tried to save me but did not succeed. They cried and cried and finally man enough to become kings themselves.

Hoseok and I will meet into the next life.

Anne With An E Season 3 Episode 9

SPOILERS

ONE EPISODE LEFT CAN YOU BELIEVE!!! 

Guys what do we even normally do when we don’t have new AWAE episodes. 

-Ka’Kwet’s opening scene was so cold and scary and heartbreaking. She’s been so brave for so long, and now she that she’s finally reached home she is finally letting all her other emotions out. The girl has been through hell, and the actress did amazing

-Anne! In a blouse! And a skirt! 

-Anne stumbling around still trying to process her feelings and Marilla IMMEDIATLY saying “Go to him, don’t make the same mistakes I did,” YES I’ve been waiting for them to touch on these parallels for SO LONG 

-Marilla 100 percent ships them. She’s been waiting for this, just look at that smile.  

-Matthew is a literal angel. “I’m in love with Gilbert Blythe!” “Oh...ok!” 

-I’m pretty sure I read Anne meeting Hazel in the exact same way in a fanfic and gotta say it is pretty spot on perfect for both characters. But also the whole time I was mumbling “no don’t just talk to Hazel, go to Bash, find Bash, he’ll understand the signifigance” 

-NO ANNE DON’T LEAVE A NOTE THAT NEVER WORKS 

-But that PS slays me. 

-I knew from the moment she put that note down it was going to get ruined and not make it to Gilbert 

- I was so confused at first as to why Gilbert was at Diana’s house. I was like “Is he there to ask Diana about Anne?”

-THE FLASHBACK WITH THE DANCING 

-Gilbert Blythe you really going to have a flashback like that and STILL talk about proposing to Winnifred? Boi. You had us fooled for two seasons thinking you were smart, but you’re just extra stupid. 

-Diana, love, darling, ditch the rules and run after Anne anyway. You’ve already done so much rebelling this season, add one more. 

-That scene where they dragged Ka’Kwet away was so awful, and for a moment after the gunshot...

-I really wish I have more about Ka’Kwet’s storyline in this review because this was the MAIN storyline of this episode, and Ka’kwet and her parents went through so much, the actors did amazing, and it was heartbreaking, seeing them torn apart, seeing her parents pushed off the land and unable to rescue their daughter. But honestly, I have no words beyond what I’ve just said - heartbreaking, and so scarily true - and typing it over and over seems to cheapen the effect somehow. 

-I am here for Ms Stacy and Bash friendship only thank you very much 

-Wait...this whole time Gilbert has just been hanging out helping at the school? ANNE COULD HAVE GONE THERE TO TALK TO HIM JESUS 

-Oh look, more signs from the universe 

-For a moment I actually thought MOODY was going to talk some sense into Gilbert. That is how low and desperate this show has brought me, I seriously thought Moody was about to be the sensible one. 

-I was right about the note btw 

-That scene between Ka’Kwet’s parents and Marilla and Matthew..this episode had a lot of focus on mothers (Marilla, Hazel, Ka’kwet’s, and even Diana’s mother a little, even Mary and Ms Stacy) but what really brought it home was that touching scene between Marilla and Ka’Kwet’s mother, and how Marilla didn’t need language to understand - because she’s a mother 

-Also did anyone else notice how Anne and Marilla were basically wearing the same outfit? Because I did and my heart 

-Matthew continues to be the goddamn best 

-Lmao Gilbert just...walked away from the rebuilding efforts? Somehow stumbled upon the girl’s old clubhouse? Found a shell? Boy what are you even doing, just go home so Hazel can tell you that Anne stopped by you fool 

-Minnie May’s revenge on Diana’s this episode was so accurate of small children. How old is Minnie May even? I feel like she’s hardly aged. 

-Diana’s “I know, right” to Marilla was so goddamn relatable 

-I fucking love Anne’s loyalty to her friends. She and Ka’kwet met..twice? Maybe three times? No more than four or five and she just without question was willing to go to all lengths to help her. 

-”Kill the Indian to Save the Child” brought me straight back to my middle school textbook and the nausea that accompanied it. 

-The nun and those men are all disgusting, and seeing Ka’Kwet so close yet so far from her family was awful. I really don’t know how they are going to handle this in the next episode; as satisfying as it would be to see them rescue all the kids, to see the newspapers create an outrage, the fact remains that these schools did happen, were approved of, and didn’t just go away. 

-Gilbert Blythe check your goddamn shoe 

-Hazel and Bash’s argument/predicament is so frustrating and the thing is both of them are a little bit right in different ways, but are so against listening and letting go of their beliefs to make it past this point. Hazel refuses to see how she hurt Bash growing up, and how things are different here. Bash refuses to see how Hazel felt stuck in the choices she made to protect Bash. But Bash learning about his father...it’s almost a footnote in everything that happened this episode, but it meant so much to him and his storyline. 

-Gilbert Blythe now has a shell, a pen, an unread and lost note, probably Matthew’s cufflinks, and no fucking clue what he is doing. 

-Get yourself a friend like Diana “proposing to another girl with his mother’s ring how dare he” She’s so insulted on Anne’s behalf 

-”I’m going to ask” YES GIRL THAT RIGHT THERE IS CALLED EMOTIONAL GROWTH I’M SO PROUD OF YOU 

-she would stop and pick flowers for Hazel this lil angel 

-That ending....look, call me a clown but..I don’t think he’s there to propose. I’m not even sure he’s at Winnifred’s house, they didn’t show the two of them in the same scene. I think it’s a misdirection. 

-And, as always, where the fuck is Cole. And Jerry for that matter. And did Aunt Jo leave already? She was there for like 2 days, in season one she was visiting for a few weeks. 

-So...one episode left, and we have: queen’s results, Ka’kwet, Gilbert’s “dramatic horse riding scene”, whatever scene has Anne in an nightgown and Gilbert at her house (IF that’s them in the same scene, it could be two different scenes that we’ve already seen this season), Bash and Hazel reconciling, Diana not going to Paris (?), Ms Stacy (?) and of course Anne and Gilbert. Also, can Gilbert please recover his father’s things? Poor boy. Like, Damn, how long is this episode going to be? Doesn’t matter, I’m watching it even if its 13 hours. 

-was this the first episode without Rachel Lynde?

[ 365 Days of SasuHina || Day Two Hundred Sixty-Three: An Apprentice ] [ Uchiha Sasuke, Hyūga Hinata, Hyūga Hiashi ] [ SasuHina ] [ Verse: River Runs Deep ] [ AO3 Link ]

“Look...there he is…”

“Who?”

“The last of the Uchiha. Didn’t you hear?”

“No! The old samurai family? What happened?”

“A few nights past, their manor went up in flames. The only one to survive was that boy, there. They say it was burned by a vengeful yōkai - an old kitsune their ancestor scourged. It gained enough power, and took its revenge.”

“The poor thing...will no one take him?”

“And risk bringing the yōkai down on their heads? Doubtful. He’s as good as marked. No one will risk being near him, now. The smell of smoke will follow...and anything too close will burn.”

The pair of women gossip beneath an awning, safe from the rain that falls over their village. Their umbrellas folded, they stop and stare at the child before them.

Sat on the stoop of an empty building, the water dribbles from the roofline, soaking him through to the bone. Bare feet are muddy, garments just as unkempt. He’s not had a meal to his name since the night his home was consumed in angry red foxfire.

He can still see the eyes in the dark when he closes his own.

Arms gripping around his knees, he stares blankly out into the swamp of the side road. There’s an ache in his belly as it begs for food, but he has nothing to offer it. No one dares approach, too wary of a fox’s curse to extend a hand. Surely if they help him, they’ll incur the creature’s wrath.

Sasuke is left to wonder if he will simply wither away in the gutter, alone and abandoned.

“...you. Boy.”

Dark eyes drag upward, following regal clothes up to a stern face. A man, followed by a pair of servants, looks to him critically with strange, pale irises the likes of which Sasuke has never seen. They almost look like the belly of a clam shell, white...and yet shimmering faint colors in the light. At the man’s hip...is a sword.

Samurai.

“You are the Uchiha, are you not?”

Confused, but also too run ragged to be wary, the boy gives a slow nod.

“What say you to an apprenticeship, boy?”

“...what…?”

“I have heard of your fate, and your roots. Your clan, like mine, was a noble family of the blade. To leave you to rot is a grave injustice. Here, in the mud, is hardy a fitting place of one of your blood. Get up.”

Black brows wilt. “But...the curse -?”

“I have no fear of fire, boy,” the man assures him, tone grave...and yet assured. “So...make your choice. Will you rot here in the gutter? Or will you accept an opened hand?”

His gaze flickers over this...stranger. Given his blade, it’s unquestionable what he is...but Sasuke cannot know who. “What...what is your name, sir?”

“I am Hyūga Hiashi, the head of my clan, and the bearer of my ancestor’s blade. There are few within the isles more skilled than I in our ways. If you are to learn, Uchiha, with the rest of your kin dead...there is no one better than I. But...I cannot do this without cost. If I am to be your teacher...you must also pledge your fealty to me. Your life will no longer be your own...but it will not wither. Like my blade, you will be an extension of my arm. A student, and a soldier under my banner. What say you, boy?”

A long moment of silence passes, Sasuke’s mind whirling. In truth...he has little choice, unless he wants to starve, or be killed, or suffer some other unknown fate until his death. No one else has dared approach the fox’s curse...but this one claims to be unphased by fire.

...Sasuke has to wonder why.

“...I...I accept,” he murmurs.

“Good...now, tell me your name, child of the Uchiha.”

“Sasuke, Hyūga-sama.”

“Your age?”

“I’m newly seven, sir.”

“I see...I’ve a daughter your age. But you will meet her another time. For now...we must take you home, bathe you, and redress you. I’ll not have a dirty vagabond under my wing. Come.” Without another warning, Hiashi turns and makes to leave.

Scrambling to his feet, Sasuke follows, still feeling...unsure. Far more questions than answers seem to run circles in his head. Who is this man? What does he want with an orphan? Who is he to defy the curse of a kitsune?

And those eyes...something about them seems...inhuman.

But there’s no time for his thoughts now, led through the streets and their stares, their whispers. By now, everyone seems to know the tale...and what it might mean if they get too close. Hiashi doesn’t seem to pay them any mind, but Sasuke shrinks from their mistrustful gazes. All of this...and none of it brought about by his own actions. Just a curse earned by an ancestor long dead. And now...his life will never be the same. His kin, gone...his home, nothing but ashes and cinders.

His future...completely uncertain.

Keeping just behind Hiashi’s hems, Sasuke soon finds himself led to a manor not unlike how his own once was. A walled district littered with buildings, roads, and beautiful gardens all standing in the grey of the rainy day, people doing their best to avoid the somber weather. All turn to observe their patriarch...and the little boy behind him.

And everywhere Sasuke looks...he sees those same strange eyes. Eyes that seem to stare straight through him.

“First, a proper bath. Then new clothes. Then we must get some sustenance into you,” Hiashi muses, still walking. “Once you are full and presentable...we will speak further. Though, if the hour grows late...it may wait until morning. I suppose it depends on how filthy you’ve gotten, and how great your appetite. My servants will tend to you. Until later, then.”

With that, Sasuke finds himself whisked to a bathhouse, stripped and washed and nearly simmered in a bath so hot, it quickly turns him red. But after so many days cold and alone, it’s a welcome change. Once warmed to his bones, he’s taken and dried, then given fresh garments that are ever so slightly too large.

“These belonged to Neji-sama, Hiashi-sama’s nephew,” one servant explains, helping to adjust the outfit. “He is already a prodigal swordsman, and a year older than you. Hiashi-sama will surely use him as a measure for your growth. Train hard, Uchiha-sama. Perhaps you will wield a blade so mighty, you will slay the kitsune that cursed you!”

The notion widens the boy’s eyes. Kill a kitsune…? Is such a thing possible? If it would avenge his family, then...perhaps…

But he’s given little time to think, carted away to his next assignment: a meal. In spite of himself, his expression is uncensored desire, stomach gurgling and a bit of drool gathering at a corner of his lips.

He eats enough to fill a grown man twice over, and could still devour more...but brings himself to a stop. Still a relative stranger, he’s fed in the kitchen, tucked atop a sack of rice as the cook laughs heartily at his appetite.

“You’ll be hungry quite often, little Uchiha,” he muses. “Hiashi-sama will run you ragged training if you are to be worth his investment in you!”

“Do you know...why he brought me here?”

“The blood in your veins is just as old, powerful, and noble as his own. To leave you to the streets is a shameful thing . Hiashi-sama fears no curses - you will be safe here.”

“But why doesn’t he -?”

“Oh, Hinata-sama!”

Cut off, Sasuke looks to the doorway. There, half-hidden behind the wall, is a girl about his age. Hime-cut hair is dark, an amethyst shine haloing from the fire. She wears a white, blue, and purple kimono, and like the others, bears those same strange eyes. But something about her feels even...stranger.

Unable to help staring, Sasuke tries to puzzle it out as the cook inquires if she’s here for a sweet to ruin her supper. As she shrinks shyly, Sasuke notices it, for just a moment.

A strange, whipping shadow cast behind her from the kitchen’s light.

But then, like a blink...it’s gone.

“Your father will scold me if I spoil your dessert before it’s time, Hinata-hime,” the cook offers, smiling warmly. “Just be patient - it won’t be long.”

“O...okay…”

“Have you met our now guest? Your father has taken on an apprentice! What do you think?”

It’s then the pair finally lock eyes, and Sasuke barely suppresses a shiver.

Something about her...it’s…

Hiding further behind the wall, Hinata ducks her head, nearly hiding behind her fringe. “...you are...the Uchiha…?”

“Y...yeah.”

Eyes rove over him curiously. “You...smell like smoke…”

“Impossible, we just had him bathed, Hinata-hime! Surely you just smell the hearth, here. Now...you’d best make your way back to your room. You know your father will be unhappy to see you back here - this is a place for us servants!”

“Y...yes.” With one last glance at her guest, Hinata gives a tiny bow before disappearing.

Sasuke doesn’t reply, just frowning, a churning in his gut. What is going on in this place…?

“Uchiha-sama? Hiashi-sama wishes to speak to you in the morning - the hour grows too late, and he has no time this evening. Please, follow me to your quarters.”

Looking to the servant, Sasuke manages a nod, thanking the cook and making to follow. His room is...nothing special. Just a place to sleep, maybe study. But after the last few days...it may as well be a room in the imperial palace. A roof over his head, a full belly, and bones warm from a bath...he can’t ask for more after all he’s lost.

Curling up in his bed, Sasuke idles for a time, lost in swirling thoughts. Something about this place - these people - it seems so...strange.

“I have no fear of fire, boy.”

But why…? What could make a man brave enough to be fearless in the face of a fox’s curse? Unless...he’s no man at all.

Having no proof, and too tired to think any further, Sasuke sighs and buries his head beneath the blankets. For now...all he wants to do is sleep in a bed at last. Tomorrow...he can begin to puzzle out this mystery.

And begin his path as a samurai’s apprentice.

     Guh, tired @~@ So I'll be brief. This is a super random idea, no idea if I'll do more with it or not - I was winging it pretty badly ^^; I like some of the concepts, but I have NO idea how I'd turn it into something a bit more proper for a story. We'll see.      For now tho, I'm just...too tired to give it more thought, aha - maybe I'll have more inspiration for it another day. Either way, thanks for reading~
